Looking forward to the day I can walk into my local Walmart and get the family AI. I am certainly up for the AI to taking the kids to their activities, helping with homework, preparing the kids for exams, walking the dogs, changing the cat box, cleaning the fish tank, doing the housework, mowing the lawn, working on the yard, planning our meals, doing the shopping, repainting my house, folding the laundry... ahhh... the possibilities are endless!

Phil, that point actually supports with Eliezer's position that the problem of AGI is simply an issue of software.

Of course, unfortunately for Eliezer, this also means that there is very little evidence regarding his proposed timeframe: Roger Schank and Daniel Dennett could easily turn out to be right.
